perf lock contention: Revise needs_callstack() condition
It needs callstacks for two reasons: * for stack aggregation mode, the map key is the stack id and it can also show the full stack traces when -v is used * for other aggregation modes, the stack filter can be used to limit lock contentions from known call paths The -v option is meaningful (in terms of stack trace) only for stack aggregation mode, so it should not set the save_callstack for other mode like with -t or -l options. I've noticed this with the following command line: $ sudo ./perf lock con -ablv -E 3 -M 16 -- ./perf bench sched messaging ... contended total wait max wait avg wait address symbol 88 4.59 ms 108.07 us 52.13 us ffff935757f46ec0 (spinlock) 33 905.22 us 73.67 us 27.43 us ffff935757f41700 (spinlock) 28 703.69 us 79.28 us 25.13 us ffff938a3d9b0c80 rq_lock (spinlock) === output for debug === bad: 12272, total: 12421 bad rate: 98.80 % histogram of failure reasons task: 8285 stack: 3987 <---------- here time: 0 data: 0 It should not have any failure on stacks since it doesn't use it.
